Keywords : Leadership. Motivation. Performance Introduction In the implementation of development, a paradigm is currently developing to accommodate three spirits of governance. First, the spirit of good government, which adheres to the principles of transparency, participation, public accountability and so on. Second, the spirit of regional autonomy with its philosophy of division of labor over authority and encouragement to foster local initiatives.

Obtaining profit and / or profit. Companies need potential human resources, both leaders and employees, in order to carry out their duties well. This has the consequence that every leader is obliged to pay serious attention to fostering, moving, and directing all potential employees in their environment in order to realize the volume and workload that is directed at the goal (Thoha, 2. Leaders need to provide serious training to employees in order to create satisfaction and organizational commitment to provide motivation so that in the end they can improve high performance. Leadership style is one of the most important factors in providing direction to employees, especially in the current era of openness, so the leader needed is a leader who is able to empower his employees. The right leadership style can also be an important role for employees to achieve more. In the world of work, a person can work well if he gets good work influence from a leader. According to (Thoha, 2. , leadership style is a behavioral norm used by someone when the person tries to influence the behavior of others or Many factors can affect employee performance, including leadership style. By seeing the importance of the role of human resources, companies must utilize human resources as effectively as possible so that organizational/company goals are achieved, one of which is employee performance which is indicated by a high sense of responsibility for work in accordance with their duties and functions, because employees who are well managed will produce the performance of the employees concerned. The poor achievement of employee performance can be seen from the failure to achieve the company's service facility (JPF) income which is not in accordance with the target set in the Company's Work Plan and Budget (RKAP) of the Regional Public Company Pasar Juara. Bandung City. From the financial sector, in this case, the company's income is not in accordance with the target that has been set, as can be seen in the table below.

Literature Review Leadership Style Leadership style is a way used by leaders to interact with their subordinates. A leader influences the behavior of subordinates to cooperate and work productively to achieve organizational According to Hasibuan . , leadership style is the way a leader influences subordinates with the aim of encouraging high work enthusiasm, job satisfaction, and employee productivity in order to achieve maximum company goals. Apriyanto . said that an effective leadership style can be successful if a leader is able to apply a situational leadership style and is willing to listen to the input of his subordinates selectively based on good knowledge and accountable studies. Zaharuddin . said that leadership style is the behavior or method chosen and used by leaders in influencing the thoughts, attitudes and behavior of their subordinate organizational members. Nikmat . said that leadership style is a pattern of leader behavior in influencing their followers, the definition of leadership style is dynamic, leadership style can change depending on the followers and the situation. From the description of the leadership style above, the researcher concludes that leadership style is a collection of characteristics used by leaders to influence subordinates so that targets are achieved or Journal of Management https://myjournal. id/index. php/JOM E-ISSN: 3026-3239 Vol. No. January - June . , pp. leadership style is a pattern of behavior and strategies that are preferred and often applied by a leader Leadership Style Factors According to Setiana . , there are several leadership style factors in carrying out leadership activities, namely: Personality, past experiences that include values, background and experience in influencing leadership style Expectations and behavior of superiors Characteristics, expectations and behavior of subordinates affect what leadership style is Task requirements, each subordinate's task will also affect the leader's style Organizational climate and policies affect subordinate expectations and behavior Expectations and behavior of colleagues Types of Leadership Styles The types of leadership styles are as follows Authoritarian Authoritarian leadership style places a leader as someone who has full power over everything that happens in the group. Generally, they will dominate and force personal opinions to be accepted by all team members. Although this way of leading will cause discomfort in the team, there are still positive sides that you can learn from the authoritarian leadership style. Authoritarian leaders are usually able to be more assertive in responding to their members' mistakes. In addition, decision making can occur quickly because of the full control they have. However, this often backfires, causing employees to feel pressured to the point of deciding to quit/resign. Democratic In contrast to authoritarianism, a democratic leadership style actually gives each team member the opportunity to express their respective opinions. This type of leadership is generally preferred because employees feel more listened to. Although personally this will bring a more comfortable working atmosphere, there are some drawbacks that accompany it. Leaders may have difficulty making decisions because of the many ideas that must be considered. This is also prone to causing conflict between employees if each team member insists on maintaining his opinion. Delegative If in authoritarian leadership the leader holds full power over every decision made, the delegative leader will actually hand this over to the team members. Although it seems resigned and hands over all responsibility to employees, this can actually increase motivation and self-confidence in each team member. However, this way of leading can also cause problems, especially if there are parties who are not Journal of Management https://myjournal. id/index. php/JOM E-ISSN: 3026-3239 Vol. No. January - June . , pp. Transformational Leaders who adapt this leadership style are very enthusiastic about making changes in their group. Therefore, they generally have an energetic, intelligent, and consistent nature in providing encouragement to each member of their team. However, this must be balanced with consistent feedback and continuous communication to realize the changes desired by all employees. Transactional Leaders with a transactional leadership style will usually apply a reward system to each member for certain achievements. The same applies vice versa, each team member must also be ready to accept the consequences or punishment if they fail to meet the target. The implementation of the reward and punishment system will actually provide more motivation to employees while working. Unfortunately, this is only oriented towards short-term goals. Motivation Motivation as one of the most dominant factors to achieve the goals or objectives of an Motivation comes from the Latin word "movere" which means encouragement. Motivation in an organization is aimed at human resources which are usually aimed at staff or According to Winardi . that "Motivation is the result of a number of processes, which are internal, or external to an individual, which causes the emergence of enthusiasm and achievement, in terms of carrying out certain activities". Motivation according to Vroom in Siagian . says that "Motivation is the result of a result that someone wants to achieve and the estimate concerned that his actions will lead to the desired results. Someone who wants something and the hope of getting it is quite large, then he is driven to get it with great effort, conversely if the hope is small the effort made is low". Performance In an organization, employee performance is a very important and dominant factor regardless of other factors in achieving organizational/company goals. An organization/company that has employees who perform well will make it easier to achieve predetermined goals and vice versa. According to Edison . "Performance is the result of a process that refers to and is measured over a certain period of time based on previously determined provisions and agreements". Meanwhile, according to Smith in Sedarmayanti . as follows: "Performance or performance is Output drive from processes, human or otherwise, so it is said that performance is the result or output of a process. Meanwhile, the definition of performance according to Mangkunegara . is: "Comes from the word job performance or actual performance, so performance is the result of work in terms Journal of Management E-ISSN: 3026-3239 Vol. No. January - June . , pp. https://myjournal. id/index. php/JOM of quality and quantity achieved by an employee in carrying out his duties in accordance with the responsibilities given to him". Meanwhile, according to Kusnadi . states that "Performance is every movement of action, implementation, activity or conscious action directed to achieve a certain goal or target" Methods In this study, the author uses a quantitative descriptive analysis study method.
